Sincere condolences to his family, and a huge "Thank You!" to Gerry from all of us, I'm sure.

Based on suggestions from Gil Weiss and Shawn Morrow in an earlier posting I installed a downhaul on my jib and led the halyard back to the cockpit. It certainly makes dowsing the jib a lot easier in rough conditions. Here's a link to the web page that I used for reference, if anyone else is interested.

Good link, Bill - Thanks! I'll have to add that to the CPYOA links page in the near future. :D
My other car is a sailboat.
